Editor's note

Years Around The Sun's ambient rock from Amsterdam

A Dutch trio blending alternative rock structures with drifting electronic atmospheres.

For a good sense of their sound, try 'Dead Mans Sea' first, then 'Fascination.' Both show how they build songs that feel solid and weightless at the same time.

They've carved out a specific space where rock songs get stretched into ambient textures, with Pieter-Paul Devos's ethereal vocals floating over the arrangements. You can hear that mix clearly on 'Dead Mans Sea' and 'Warm Jets', songs that feel grounded in guitar but drift toward something more spacious. It's not exactly shoegaze, not exactly post-rock, but their own version of that in-between zone.

They formed in Amsterdam in 2014 and released their first EP, 'Echoes of Time,' the next year. Later records like 'Portals,' 'Thread,' and 'The Sound of the Cosmos' kept exploring that blend of rock and ambient electronics.

They put out their first EP, 'Echoes of Time,' the following year. Their songs like 'Dead Mans Sea' and 'Fascination' often mix alternative rock with ambient textures and ethereal vocals.

A full-length album called 'Portals' came later, followed by other records including 'Thread,' 'Miles Away,' and 'The Sound of the Cosmos.'
